At the same time, in the fortress, Gu Zheng was already standing below, controlling his cultivation to remain at the early stage of Golden Immortal, and looking at the opponent in front of him.
Not sure if it was an illusion or something else, Gu Zheng just felt that something was wrong with the way the other party looked at him, as if he had a grudge against him, but he didn't care. Even if he wanted to kill him, the other party couldn't do it in public unless he wanted to kill him.
He has reached the final step and breaks his skin, but he can't kill himself.
It's obviously still early for the situation to change. If it comes now, I'm afraid there won't be any competition.
Gu Zheng's opponent was a relatively burly man, but his short body made the opponent seem to be developing sideways. His body was beating constantly, and his eyes were fixed on Gu Zheng, constantly sizing him up.
After giving the order, the man roared and strode forward, leaving a deep footprint on the ground. At the same time, there was a "crackling" sound coming from his body. While advancing,
The surface of his body was also shining with crystal light, and he was suddenly taller. He was actually a head taller than Gu Zheng, and he looked like a completely different person.
The opponent's speed is not very fast. Every step he takes will tremble three times. The huge power can be felt in the surroundings.
Especially before the other party took a step, the aura outside his body solidified and turned into a layer of golden light covering his body. In almost a few breaths, he had covered most of the distance, and the entire surface of his body was even more golden, like his arms.
, it seemed to have grown several times larger, and a huge arm, with a scornful momentum, hit Gu Zheng head-on.
When Gu Zheng saw the action, he understood the opponent's plan. In the first two games, he wandered around and tried to attack to find opportunities. However, he seemed to be not very flexible. He was ready to defeat Gu Zheng with a thunderous strike from the beginning. He didn't want to
Wandering with the other party, but following his will, allowing the other party's energy to lock you.
"How arrogant!"
When the short man saw Gu Zheng standing still, a sharp light flashed in his eyes. Although the attack at this time fell on the opponent, even if the opponent did not defend, he would feel a tightness in his chest at most. After all, the opponent's foundation was there, and the attack was real.
In the early stage of Golden Immortal, the opponent also lost because a normal opponent would not be able to withstand this attack.
At this time, the short man had arrived in front of Gu Zheng, and when he took the last step forward, he suddenly stepped on the ground again. His body suddenly flew into the air, waving his fists, and struck at Gu Zheng's shoulder.
.
Gu Zheng knew that this was the moment when he took action. He looked at the opponent's victorious eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, and stepped back sideways like a ghost. He moved away a little distance as if teleporting, just out of the attack distance of the opponent's arm.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Zheng raised his figure, as if he were on an iron bridge, put his hands on the ground and exerted force suddenly. With such a strange posture, his whole body rushed forward quickly, and he happened to be under the short man.
Through the dazzling golden light, you could see the astonishment in the opponent's eyes, and then he stopped hesitating, bent his leg back and kicked it suddenly.
"boom"
There was a huge crashing sound, accompanied by the broken golden light, and Gu Zheng's soles came into close contact with the opponent's abdomen.
Just in an instant, the seemingly menacing golden light suddenly dissipated from his body, and his figure flew into the air out of control, directly hitting the protective shield, sticking to it like a meat pie.
above.
The short man was furious. For him, this attack power was like scratching an itch. But when he was about to fight back, he saw that Gu Zheng below had already put away his momentum, stretched out a fist and raised it high.
It seemed like he was celebrating, which almost made him explode.
Just as he was about to give the other party a wink, he discovered that the protective shield behind him had disappeared, and the king above had already announced the victory of the ancient war.
Although he is not injured now, he was defeated in that blow.
"That figure was so fast. I didn't even see him clearly before the opponent flew up. Just now I thought the opponent was going to resist, and I was still sighing. I didn't expect that he would shake the opponent." This is a person with a relatively low cultivation level.
Audience, before he only paid attention to short men and not to Gu Zheng.
"I can see it clearly. The opponent's grasp of time and distance is so accurate. There is almost no error. If you slow down, you will be interfered by the strong wind outside the opponent's body and lose the opportunity. If you go faster, the opponent's strength is not yet there.
If you release it completely, you can retract it in time to block the blow." Another man looked at Gu Zheng who was going back and praised him.
Most of them still knew what was going on. Although this time the battle was very short. It was so short that at the beginning, some people were still discussing the previous battle with others. They didn’t even have time to pay attention to what was happening below.
He praised it and hurriedly asked for details, but then he was very upset that he didn't see such a wonderful aspect.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Although Mrs. Xue didn't know much about Pan Xuan, she was full of praise for him. He was a magical person who was good at creating miracles. It was normal for him to win this kind of battle.
As for the latter, as soon as he came here, he sat aside and fell asleep, as if he didn't listen to what was going on outside the window, and didn't pay attention to anything outside. Gu Zheng naturally knew that the other party was controlling the breath in his body, so as not to accidentally fail to cultivate.
The outbreak caused a huge sensation.
Gu Zheng just smiled, then stood aside and watched the next fourth game.
"How's it going? Do you see anything?" On the other side, City Lord Bu glanced at this side, and then whispered to Platycodon next to him.
"The opponent is very strong, and I may not be their opponent." Kikyo said with a solemn expression.
Even in this short exchange, she could see some tricks. Although she could dodge the opponent's attack, she couldn't do it if she took the opportunity to counterattack and eliminate the opponent.
"What about weapons?" City Lord Bu asked in return.
"There is a 30% certainty."
"Too low." City Lord Bu glanced at Platycodon, seemingly disappointed, and stopped talking.
Kikyo bit her lip and said nothing more, because her own cultivation level was at the peak of the Golden Immortal. Even if she was lowered to the early stage of the Golden Immortal, the upper limit was relatively low, but she was the only one in the Golden Immortal stage and the weakest one.
.
"I can definitely do it!" Kikyo said confidently from the side.
"It doesn't matter if it's okay or not, we will arrange for you to enter the top four, but at that time, the loss will not be under our control. The other party seems to have some kind of relationship with that woman. If there is a chance, you can hurt the other party without fear of punishment.
Everything is worth it." City Lord Bu actually knew a little bit of information because of his good relationship with Madam Xue, and he could feel it with his intuition.
No one paid attention to their conversation. They were all watching the battle below or talking to the people next to them. It seemed that everyone had something to do. Gu Zheng also paid attention to Pan Xuan at all times to prevent the other party from taking control.
Don't stop and help each other in time.
The other party forcibly suppresses the breakthrough, but also hides himself, which in itself consumes a lot of his energy.
However, there was not much passion in the next game. In order to win, almost everyone began to use roaming tactics. Even if others fought hard, they would hide if they could. They were not afraid of losing face in order to win, as if to protect the face of the city lord.
Same.
After the eight simple games were over, almost a full day passed. After a brief rest, the second round of games began.
On the huge field below, the shield that originally shrouded the outside began to shrink again, and the field restrictions became smaller. This also means that if you want to delay time by being flexible, there is not enough space, and because of the first game
Everyone was ordered to do it basically with bare hands, but now it is obvious that ordinary weapons can be used. Although the hits can only break a little skin at most, there are many more tactics.
Penetrating your chest and slashing your neck, you cannot quickly launch a counterattack. In short, it is much more complicated than the previous situation.
The selection of the top eight was quickly completed. Gu Zheng glanced at his opponent, who happened to be his own. He subconsciously looked over there. The opponent also looked over here and smiled slightly at him. There is no need to say too much about it.
explain.
As long as they can fight quickly, they will fight quickly. It's just that they were very unlucky last time and almost didn't get together. But this time they finally have a fate. Although they were eliminated, compared to this best-of-three-game situation, they can
More time to solve.
"It's so boring!" Ruochen looked around, then shook his head and said.
"Compared to these battles, they are a bit boring. It's a pity that we still have to wait for them to end." Next to her, another city lord, not knowing whether it was the other party or this side, echoed.
His people were also eliminated in the first round, and they were still considered losers when the time came, but he was tolerant of it. Anyway, they were just passing the boring time to ease their conflicts.
"Yes, if you know this, after the mediation, go straight back and forget it. I'd better rest for a while." Ruochen agreed, and then he lay aside a little sadly, closed his eyes, and began to take a nap.
Seeing that Ruochen had no intention of speaking, the latter did not disturb her rest and started discussing with the other eliminated person.
To be honest, they have rarely gathered together like this in recent years. They are all old friends from the past, and it feels good to talk to each other about their respective affairs.
Ruochen's subordinates also sat aside, their arms next to her, and their eyes looking down with interest.
A faint black mist emerged from Ruochen, and without anyone noticing, it fell to the ground below and disappeared.
At the same time, where she was resting on the third floor, with a flash of black formation light, Ruochen's figure appeared there again.
"City Lord! They are already here!"
The confidant who stayed behind immediately stepped forward and spoke.
"Take them and follow me!"
At this time, the third floor was completely empty. It could be said that almost no one was in this space. However, Ruochen led the troops behind him and headed towards the place where Lord Luo City lived.
"who!"
At Lord Luo's place, there were still some people left behind. When that group came over, they had already activated the defensive array and shouted outside.
"Don't worry about them, just keep them under control."
Even if they wanted to send a message through the magic circle they had set up, they couldn't get through it. Behind her, there was a team assembled by the city lords. There were hundreds of people. If it weren't for the cover above, most of them would have gone up to watch the fun.
, and there can be a lot more.
However, these people were definitely their confidants and had absolutely no objections to the orders of their respective city lords. Upon hearing Ruochen's order, they pounced directly on them.
With the internal support of the city lord who protects them, all the weaknesses here are not a problem in front of them. Who makes the city lord Luo here not agree to the other party's maintenance? Only the temporary protection he set up here is basically vulnerable.
Originally she didn't want to use such a ruthless approach, but when she was up there, she specifically observed the people Gu Zheng mentioned, and she did feel a similar aura from them. What was deeper than Gu Zheng's feeling was that she
Unexpectedly, I also sensed a strange demon soul aura from the Lord of Luo City. It seemed to be a demon soul, but it was not a demon soul, but it must have been in the near future anyway.
Even after special treatment, for their demon souls, that aura could escape their observation no matter what. She believed that City Lord Liu had also noticed it and had already reconsidered his opinions in the previous conversation.
Send it down and let everyone deal with it with the highest vigilance.
This means that City Lord Luo's side will be eliminated regardless of the reason. Others have the worst plan and ask her to act in advance.
She was originally planning to leave in the third stage. At that time, she could make further judgments based on the situation, but now it is no longer necessary. The inexplicable sense of crisis in her heart told her that Gu Zheng was right, I am afraid that Yaohun's people have already moved towards
Head this way.
After controlling the Lord of Luo City, he completely tied him up and locked him up in a house. Ruochen came to a special room.
The entire room is very empty, with only a thick black metal pillar standing in the middle, and you can see deep inscriptions engraved on it.
This is the main control center that controls Leiyin City. If it is not activated, other areas cannot be opened at all. Of course, if all are activated, Leiyin City will be completely transformed into a battle fortress. The movement will be very huge and everyone will know it.
More importantly, once activated, no one can close it within seven days. It will not automatically close after seven days, but will continue. And as long as it is activated again according to the method, it can be maintained for another seven days.
Unless a Daluo peak person is determined to die, there is no way he can stop.
At that time, there were not enough people, so in order to prevent it from being closed, it was specially set up like this.
This black pillar seems inconspicuous, but in fact it is just a little bit exposed on the outside. Everything is inside a special seal. However, after so many years, its power has been somewhat reduced.
The city lord who always protects me regrets telling everyone.
Of course, if it weren't for his timely maintenance, I'm afraid it wouldn't even have one-third of its power.
"The first leader is really great."
Thinking of the overwhelming power of Leiyin Fortress, Ruochen's eyes were slightly blank, as if he had returned to the days of passionate struggle. At that time, she was still in the Demon Soul Realm, just an ordinary Demon Soul. In the end, the Demon Soul side
The entire army came out, but in the end they all came back defeated, and this was how the Soul Alliance was formed.
Of course, at that time, Wen Tianhou was still fighting to the death with Gu Feng, trying to drive him out at one go, but unfortunately he also failed.
The strength of demon souls is now much stronger than before. Even if the soul alliance has grown, it may not be the opponent of the opponent. The premise is that all the elites are dispatched.
Of course, if the demon souls hadn't been transported there every once in a while, they would have occupied the Black Prison long ago, but I'm afraid they would have to play it completely.
After a moment of confusion, Ruochen still knew what he was doing here. He took out a small black ball and approached the edge of the black pillar. Wisps of black air escaped from the black pillar and merged into the black ball.
The originally dim black ball soon became dark and shiny.
This is a temporary passage authority. Only by relying on this can we completely pass through the blockade of the core area over there.
"Master, stay here. If anyone wants to come in, activate this black pillar, even me. If there are no enemies, just wait for my order, or if there is a huge change, make your own decision.
"Putting away the black ball, Ruochen said to the demon soul brought in.
"Yes, City Lord!"
Naturally, this demon soul has its own mission, which can be said to be a narrow escape. Once the enemy comes here, it means that chaos has begun outside. What he has to do is to activate the defense, but he does not hesitate to take over.
Ruochen patted the other party's shoulder, and then walked out. A black light flashed at the entrance and then disappeared. A simple barrier would help him protect others from intruding.
The demon soul who was left behind was standing solemnly next to the black pillar, with one hand pressed directly on the black pillar and his eyes fixed on the only entrance. Once someone came near, he would immediately activate the stone pillar.
After hurriedly coming outside, Ruochen took the remaining troops and walked in another direction, and that was one of the passages into the core area. Only from here could one reach the area where others would be pulled over, and
Behind this area, there is a very important function, which is to station and activate the detection array outside, and at the same time raise a huge defensive cover outside the fortress.
This area is very important. It can be said to be the command center of the entire fortress. From here, you can control the defense of various organs.
This road did not become pitch black just because no one was coming. Except that the two sides had been sealed into walls, there seemed to be no difference.
However, as the team here approached, the speed of the team gradually slowed down until it stopped completely.
In front, a red-haired man stood alone, blocking their only way.
"Team Blue, I didn't see you above, and I didn't see you in Lord Luo's house, so I guessed you were here." Ruochen took a step forward, looked at the red-haired man, and said.
"How did you find out? It seems that you have realized that something is wrong."
The blue group looked at Ruochen, a trace of fear flashed in their eyes, but they still stood there.
Now that the other party has arrived here, it goes without saying that there are some things that everyone knows. Although he is not the opponent's opponent, it is still possible to buy some time to warn the higher ups.
"It's a pity. It seems to be true. When you came, I personally recommended it to the Lord of Luo City. I didn't expect it."
Ruochen sighed, and then took another step forward. On the edge of his right hand, a black light began to rise.
